This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 545 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This comprehensive treatise on the reticuloendothelial system is a project jointly shared by individual members of the Reticuloendothelial (RE) Society and bio medical scientists in general who are interested in the intricate system of cells and molecular moieties derived from those cells which constitute the RES. It may now be more fashionable in some quarters to consider these cells as part of what is called the mononuclear phagocytic system or the lymphoreticular sys tem. Nevertheless, because of historical developments and current interest in the subject by investigators from many diverse areas, it seems advantageous to present in one comprehensive treatise current information and knowledge con cerning basic aspects of the RES, such as morphology, biochemistry, phylogeny and ontogeny, physiology, and pharmacology as well as clinical areas including immunopathology, cancer, infectious diseases, allergy, and hypersensitivity. It is anticipated that by presenting information concerning these apparently het erogeneous topics under the unifying umbrella of the RES attention will be focused on the similarities as well as interactions among the cell types constitut ing the RES from the viewpoint of various disciplines. The treatise editors and their editorial board, consisting predominantly of the editors of individual vol umes, are extremely grateful for the enthusiastic cooperation and enormous task undertaken by members of the biomedical community in general and especially by members of the American as well as European and Japanese Reticuloen dothelial Societies.

Book The Reticuloendothelial System in Health and Disease

Download or read book The Reticuloendothelial System in Health and Disease written by S.M. Reichard and published by Springer. This book was released on 1976-08-01 with total page 495 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume deals mainly with morphologic, ontogenic and metabolic aspects of phagocytosis and factors affecting RES function. The first section contains chapters on the morphology and surface properties of macrophages. The second section deals with the ontogeny and development of B and T lymphocytes as well as macrophages. The third section covers biochemical and physiologic parameters of mononuclear cells and of polymorphonuclear leukocytes, e.g., cyclic nucleotide and iron metabolism, chemotaxis and enzymatic activity, while the fourth is concerned with the phagocytic event. The fifth section relates to factors affecting RES function with discussions on surface receptors of B lymphocyte activation by antigens in regard to the effect of ligand concentration and induction time, lipopolysaccharide effects in vivo and in vitro as related to RES cells including a correlation of lipopolysaccharide structure with biological activity and, finally, the role of the RES in shock and trauma. Summaries of two workshops are also contained in this volume, the first workshop was concerned with the biochemistry and physiology of the RES; the second dealt with pharmacologically important aspects of RES metabolism and function. It is anticipated that the presentation of symposia and scientific papers and the workshop summaries will reflect the intense activity that is taking place in this multidisciplinary field. A better understanding of the Reticuloendothelial System is directly relevant to both conceptional and practical aspects of not only immunology, but other areas of medical and biological sciences in general.

Book The Reticuloendothelial System and Atherosclerosis

Download or read book The Reticuloendothelial System and Atherosclerosis written by Rodolfo Paoletti and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-03-09 with total page 530 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The circulatory system is usually considered to be composed of tubes of various diameters, characterized by collateral and terminal branches. There is also a tendency to treat blood vessels merely as conducting tubes in which the various structures of the wall act as mechanical pumps wlrich modify their diameter. This is, of course, not so. In fact, we know that blood vessels, and in particular arteries, are organs with personalities of their own and a particular susceptibility to several diseases. In addition, blood vessels differ in structure, according to their localization, and age at differing rates. The experimental work car ried out so far clearly confirms the data that have come from spontaneous human pathology; experimentally induced arterial lesions have a definite tendency to appear in certain arteries and not in others, depending on the experimental procedures used, and in each specific artery the lesions appear to have a specific location. We now know that the arterial wall is a metabo licallyactive structure, in which a number of enzyme activities have been clearly demonstrated. It possesses a sensitive vasa vasorum apparatus and a specific reactivity to various lesion-inducing stimuli. We must also remember that the arterial wall is in continuous contact with the blood circulating through the endothelial cells lining the vascular bed. It is obvious, therefore, that any variation in the circulating blood mass can modify the morphology as well as the function of the vessel wall.

This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 446 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume represents a portion of the Proceedings of the Sixth International Meeting of the Reticuloendothelial Society. There is little question that the University of Freiburg was a most appropriate choice as the site of the meeting since, in essence, the Society was founded here when Aschoff undertook his classical studies on the macrophage and discovered what may well have been the last remaining biological system. In the approximate fifty years which have elapsed since Aschoff introduced the descriptive term Reticuloendothelial System to unify those cells with the common property of phagocytosis, one finds investigative activity at the highest level in all areas of reticuloendothelial involvement. Indeed, the topics covered in the present volume would of necessity require that the common property of phagocytosis which led to the formulation of the reticuloendothelial system be modified. The common basis at the present is clearly no longer phagocytic expression, but the unifying basis of host defense. The totality of reticuloendothelial involvement in host-defense is clearly reflected by the diverse scientific backgrounds and research interests of the participants of the meeting. Remarkable advances in appreciating the involvement of the RES in maintaining the well-being of the host against a variety of endogenous and exogenous factors have been made since volume I of the Advances in Experimental Biology and Medicine on the reticulo endothelial system was published.

Download or read book The Reticuloendothelial System and Atherosclerosis written by N. R. Di Luzio and published by . This book was released on 1967 with total page 528 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A perusal of the table of contents of this book will indicate the versatility, uniqueness, diversity, and multipotential nature and activity of the reticuloendothelial system. Because of its multiple functions, many scientific disciplines converge on the reticuloendothelial system. This volume proves that the area of participation of the reticuloendothelial cells is so broad as to capture the interest of a wide variety of scientists. Still, the subject to which it is devoted is very young. Less than a century has elapsed since the classic studies of Metchnikoff delineated the role of the fixed phagocytic cell as a major component of the host-defense system, and less than half a century has elapsed since Aschoff united the morphologically distinct groups of cells under the name "reticuloendothelial system" because of their common functional property of phagocytosis.
